Trademark DUmmies are known for their intolerance of diverse opinions, a deluded sense of their own self-importance, and ineffective activism.

"I'm E. Feet Liberal and I rely on 'DU' to keep me up with:

--words and ideas newly banned by the intellectually enlightened
--inane progressive ideology
--DNC talking points
and
--cheap shots aimed at anyone to the right of Noam Chomsky

When reality threatens my leftist bubble, I gain solace from being a DUmmie. The anti-American opinions and half-truths reassure me that my hand wringing, activism, and blogging is a wise life's devotion.

However, there are those who disagree with my utopian vision. They say my advocacy has no lasting spiritual value.

During these exchanges I use my 'rhetorical kung-fu' skills to mount an enlightened response. I stereotype the dissenters as 'typical racist, sexist, Freeper, inbred, wingnuts.' Then I dismiss everything that they have to say because, obviously, anyone who holds a differing opinion from a DUmmie is mentally ill.

If the unenlightened cloud the issue with FACTS, I ask libtard posters for backup. Via a consensus, we form a grassroots mob and bully the dissenters with ad hominems. Obviously this reaction is a responsible use of power, and we DUmmies make a difference in the all important blogosphere. (Mean people suck, and their free expression is not welcomed on the World Wide Web).

Will you help me in my efforts to quash wrong speech and wrong thoughts? (The Bill of Rights should be disallowed in red states because it is an obstacle to socially responsible progress).

A DUmmie is someone from Democratic Underground who is generally very intolerant of other opinions.

The DUmmies say they appreciate diversity but ruthlessly ban anyone with an opinion not strictly in keeping with the DU party line. They claim to be the guardians of free speech but their forums prove otherwise. I think the best descriptor is "hypocrite".
